National Poultry
Equipment Company has been contributing to the egg and poultry industry
since 1935. The original equipment was designed and built by Clyde
and Walter Powell of Renton, Washington to clean breeder and commercial
eggs produced and marketed by the small "backyard" poultry
farmers. The first Magic Egg Cleaner used a series of sanding loops
that buffeted the egg as it was carried through the machine on a
conveyor belt.

The Magic Egg Cleaner was performing a very useful
purpose on the farm, however, the speed of the machine was not sufficient
to match growth of egg production. Roland Haney, a salesman for
the Powell brothers, conceived the idea of replacing the sanding
loops with nylon brushes and spraying the eggs with a water based
cleaning solution. He sold the idea to the Powell brothers and the
Aquamagic Egg Sanitizer was invented. The original machines did
not sell well as the idea of washing eggs was not an accepted practice
by the USDA. Mr. Haney traveled to Washington D.C. where he convinced
USDA officials that his method of cleaning was equal or superior
to "buffing." He later added a grader to the machine which
made the Aquamagic the first egg processor that candled, sanitized
and graded eggs in one step.

In 1984, Cal-Mar Industries purchased the company
and moved it to Modesto, California. They expanded the market for
the machine by introducing its benefits to the breeder industry
for all avian species, not just chickens. The machine is now used
to sanitize turkey, duck, goose and game bird eggs as well as SPF
eggs used in the production of both avian and human vaccines.

In June 2000, Russ Larson and Gorden Barker of Barlar
Industries purchased the company and relocated it to its current
location in Osage, Iowa. With their combined experience in the poultry
industry they have improved and updated many aspects of the machine.
With the new look and updated features come a new name - Sani-Touch.

In July 2015, Justin, Lauren, and Dawn Enzinger of Enzinger, Inc. purchased the company from Barlar Industries and continue to operate the company from its current location in Osage, Iowa. The Enzinger’s are excited to bring fresh new ideas and perspectives to the company and will continue to serve commercial egg producers and poultry breeders across the globe.
